It's still a good idea to pin Test E twice a week. If you want to go once a week you should look at Test Cyp
Other questions:
I am paranoid of gyno, and think I may be prone to it. Will injecting both (I assume at working HRT dosages) compound my chances of sides? So far I've been safe with the prop at 100mg EOD. Will adding enanthate (at my planned dose of 250mg a week) to my dropped prop dose of 50mg EOD effectively give me 425mg test a week? or does the slow-acting ester have slow-acting side effects? I've not read anything about this specifically. I didn't want to dose that high right now.
It takes 4 weeks for the Test E ester to kick in. I takes Test Prop just a day. Once the Test E kicks in, yes, your dose will be 425mg/wk
Or was 8 injections of prop at 100mg and one at 140mg not enough to matter? Maybe I should just go right into the enanthate tomorrow and not worry about the prop? It was only an 18-day prop cycle if i switch esters tomorrow...... pretty short. I did kind of want to bulk during this slow interim period though.
Test Prop works pretty fast. 18 days (9 injections) is enough to start shutting you down. I would start Test E and keep up the Test P for 3 more weeks until the Test E kicks in then drop the Test P and keep going with the Test E.
Also, what is the best way to avoid the puffed-out 'moonface' look once I go on the longer ester? A couple guys at my gym on the same stuff I'm getting have it, and its obvious. I do NOT want it. I have Nolvadex on hand and am getting some Arimidex tomorrow.
